Archive for knitting yarn

It’s been quite a while since I featured some teapots on my blog, so here’s a few more unusual ones I have come across. The first unusual one is made of fur. I have already done a post about Merritt Oppenheimer and her iconic fur cup and saucer (here). I have absolutely no information about this teapot apart from the obvious fact that it is made of what looks like black fur which does look real (and most likely is). I like the tactile qualities of the piece very much.

Yet another teapot with no information to go on apart from the obvious reference to knitting. I really like the design and glazes to this pot, which has been well planned and thought out. A very unusual piece of ceramic indeed.

I was torn between 3 very different pieces to include (one being a bird’s nest teapot), but decided to go with this other birds nest one because I really like everything about it. The colours and the glaze are sympathetic to the subject matter and there is something so countrified and pleasing about it. I like the speckled eggs in the nest drawing – and I probably would like whatever is on the finial – but I can’t make out what it is!
